About visiting the probate court

About visiting the Crisp County Probate Ct Judge

The term probate court is a common term loosely referring to the probate division located within a state or county courthouse. In the state of Georgia, the Superior Court is the level of court responsible for overseeing matters related to probate court.

Crisp County Probate Ct Judge is listed as a registered probate court within Crisp County, Georgia.

In most instances within Georgia, there is at least one Superior Court courthouse location within each county. Sometimes a county may have multiple courthouses and may also have multiple probate court locations.

About visiting the probate court

Who to speak with when visiting the Crisp County probate court

Upon visiting the Crisp County Probate Ct Judge, look for signs or directions to the probate division within the main courthouse. Once you’ve located the probate division, make your way to any reception desks and ask to speak with a probate clerk or probate judge. The probate clerk at Crisp County Probate Ct Judge may or may not require appointments based upon the busyness of the probate court, so it’s a great idea to call ahead.

Plan ahead to be early in case available parking is limited and be prepared for formal security measures upon entering the building, as courthouses are official state and federal property. This generally includes passing through metal detectors and allowing search of any belongings.

Many courthouses do not allow cell phones, so keep that in mind as your phone may need to be turned off upon entering the courthouse, or even left outside.

The ladies in this office lack professional maturity and common courtesy. I called to get information on a ticket, they were rude, wasn’t interested in my questions, kept saying you can just pay the ticket and even hung up on me. Someone really needs to do some hard core training or fire the entire staff

Was going 85 on the highway and get pulled over saying I went 101, I'm glad you guys like bumping charges up just to keep your rinky dink little "town" still going. There's a reason no one ever stops there, you guys are moochers and mainly pull over people that are black or from far away and traveling. Everyone in the court aside from the people determining our fates, were black. Also, gl trying to get people back if they didn't pay a fine, God knows you don't have the money to actually go after them, because you guys REALLY NEED money. Also, get a restaurant or something that has food in your town, if you guys even can. And as a side note, tell your highway brigade, not everyone has a gun in their car, you don't need to be trigger happy with me just because I'm black and from out of town.

I was stopped by an Crisp county officer and he out right lied on the speed I was traveling. I had my cruise control set to 80 and he stated that I was doing 95. Also he was coming down the opposite direction of the highway he nearly hit me when he attempted to enter the highway from the middle opening of the two highways. The speed limit was 70 I admit but I wasn't going 95 he followed me for a minute or two before pulling me over. Most likely he noticed I was from out of town and probably wouldn't come to court. I wanted to dispute his saying but in this day I felt uncomfortable with him especially since he asked me to get out the car for no reason at all. Being a black woman with two kids and my elderly mother I just didn't want the hassle or end up on news as another fallen black person shot by a white cop

What a terrible town. The sheriff had 8 officers on the interstate in a 2 mile stretch. It is obvious this place is just a revenue engine. Hopefully the county leaders understand this deters tourism and businesses from wanting to do anything in the town.

I drove early in the morning from Atlanta regarding the traffic ticket at 9am. Granted it was raining, my GPS took me the wrong way and I had to wait 8 minutes for a train to pass, but I arrived at 9:10 am. The lady (young woman with long black hair)who told us to check in, after just letting us sit there for few minutes, was rude and said we should've been here at 9am. She then turned two guys away after me. About 5 minutes later another lady (nice older blonde lady) allowed people to check in while the rude lady was watching. Although it was kind, it was still unfair to the others who were turned away. While sitting in the waiting area she continues to say rude remarks about people being late. Very unprofessional.
